My first novel by Laurie Kellogg. Enjoyed the characters and the romance. If you don't like or are opposed to explicit sex, you might want to skip this one. Believable, likeable, characters who discover their lives after growing up in the same town years back, and from opposite "social" classe...

She was Dani’s nurse during the induction phase o...
Sabrina sat at the top of the steps and buried her face in her hands while she listened to the guys argue downstairs. “Hell, yeah, it crossed my mind. But you said you’d give it some thought.” Ben snorted. “You certainly didn’t waste any time once you made up your mind, did you?” Luke pounded on ...
